MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Goes to show you that lot of top NHL people arent that good at talent evaluation... 4 organizations gave up on him , in just over a year. I feel like a lot of us fans/fantasy guys say this a lot and I would really disagree with it. Its like saying the world best dart thrower isnt good because he didnt hit a bullseye in his last attempt. No one is going to be perfect at this, and there are so many variables, that you just dont know. And I dont think 4 organizations gave up on him, Mtl+Phx just didnt have any room for him to showcase his talent. Edm....well, Oilers gonna Oilers as they say. Not to pick on your words, just saying, it isnt that easy to spot talent, develop it properly and to never try to improve your team in different ways, without once in a while getting it wrong. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Dubnyk Min. 1.74. .937 Love to be his agent now negotiating his contract. Is 6 years $40 million out of question? If he goes UFA he should get that no? yes no 3years 13million is my best guess. ..5 years $20 million might be fair Id like to point out that Serge+I pretty much hit this mother right on the nail. Ok, maybe not right on, but double mine(I hit the cap right on!lol), or just add 1yr to Serges at 6mill, and you're there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Well to be fair neither of those were ever happening cap hit would have been quite a bit higher on a 3 year deal. They gave him the extra years to keep the cap hit down. We are all pretty excited about the contract though! Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 I understand your point, but terminating someone's contract is relevant to only that persons behaviour. Link to post Share on other sites

Babying 613 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 what are you referring to? I don't know the exact reference but it was Burrows grabbing ice shavings and putting it near his nose. He then reference himself to Richards. Link to post Share on other sites
